  1. I love shopping for anything Trek, I can spend hour’s browsing the books and the toy’s er, I mean collectibles and I don’t mind grocery shopping  but if it’s shopping for clothes and shoes, house ware’s (except electronics, that's cool) and the like, I am soooo not going.

    I pretty much agree with Alterego here.


  2. First, the only reason is that if the photon torps travelled faster-than-light, we wouldn't be able to see them! And that wouldn't make for very good battle scenes. Even though they are supposed to travel at warp 1.

     

     

    Phasers fire at the speed of light, thus can't be used at warp speeds.  Torpedoes can travel at warp speed, thus can be used when travelling at warp.

    That's actually not quite true. Both phasers and photon torps can be used at warp because they are in the collective warp fields of the ships and are pulled along with them.
